Quck activation of my "Neigborhood SOTA Summit". It takes me less than 10 minutes to arrive at TH from home. On a very warm day for nearly the end of January (60+ degrees F), we set out from Anti Aircraft TH, Cougar Mountain Regional Park. Our route was abot 7 miles circuit of the upper reaches of the Park. Wilderness Peak is about 1,600 foot in elevation and a 1 point SOTA summit.

There were droves of hikes, joggers and dog walkers out, as it was a glorious and sunny day. All contacts were 2M FM, using my second generation Arrow Antennas 146-4BP, 4 element yagi antenna. This is a second iteration of this antenna which I have been using for years. It just arrived via USPS a few days ago, and I wanted to test it out. It was coupled to my ICOM IC-V85 7 watt 2M transceiver.
